What problem are you referring to???
Can you please explain better?
THought everyone knew
Im sorry.. i thought everyone knew...
When you install the background4AllTabs, everything works fine, excet for the manila menues... like All Programs, stocks, Music Player etc and the rest which have the default white background to a height of only 640. The Touch HD has a height of 800 so this leaves a transparent gap of about 160px which is annoying because the programs and items are still lsited.. just no white background.. gives it a very dirty look... there are screenshots in another thread... but i dont have one to be able to post...

Thanks I was going to install it...downloaded before....but now that you told me of this problem I'm reconsidering it and probably I will wait for the final release then...
I tried to PM Nisse and Mun_rus.. who originally made it... and did not get an answer back from them. Seems like the community has beens tuck on this for a while (or it is not a priority). mun_rus got ill so cant really blame him...
Anyway, its times like these i knew a litte bit more to be able to manila edit the right file and change the height of the background...
Hopefully someone will come up with an answer... i dont think there will be a final release... I did wish that Nisse didnt advertise it for the TouchHD as it clearly has this problem.. although mind you.. it does work as advertised...
The one nisse posted here works fine on my HD:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2869354&postcount=571
So are you saying.. that :
1) you have your own background in all the tabs (meaning u have installed background4alltabs)
2) When you go to All programs in Manila... you dont get a stripe on the top...
Can you please post screenshots... i have tried everything and I know there are many of us who ahve done the same.
Just read the thread a bit better now, and I think I just misunderstood. I get full pictures on all tabs, but not sure about "all programs" etc. I don't use it anymore because of the low resolution on the pictures.
So my fears are confirmed... no one knows how... and no one cares...
Here's the shot + more info

Hi guys
I posted it already in another thread, but I think its best to put it in here:
I installed the two manila files "5c9aa261_manila" and "4a087e41_manila" (see attached in "manila files.zip") into the windows folder and then reactivated TF3D.
Then I saw that the background changed well in all tabs. It seemed everything was all right til I saw this (picture attached). In the all programs list and the share portfoilo tab I see instead of a all white backgroud a dark bar in the upper half of the screen showing the background installed on all tabs.
Now I wanted to know how I could solve this. Hope someone could help me.
Thanks in advance!

can you send a screenshot of the home screen?
I belive there should bee a white/black bar right under the start menu..
just to ease my mind please
Version 1 of 5c9aa261_manila:
Version 2 of 5c9aa261_manila:
so it's in the home screen to.. and the text you see, is it the operator? any way too fix that so it say somthing else?
It's not very important, cause for the home screen you can put an image 800x480 with the wallpaper option in Parameters, so you just have to choose if you want the 1st version without black strip but with the bug in "All Programs" and "Music" or the 2nd version with black stripe at the top but no bug "All Programs" and "Music"

When I bought my first PPC, I didn't have a clue on how to mod it, or do any of the cool stuff I saw other people were doing. I read the forums for a good week, and tried to find out all the info I could. Afterwards, I tried a few mods and they worked! There were a couple of times where I couldn't figure something out, THATS when I posted and asked questions that were answered by forum members. You have to do some reading, research & experimentation about things first, you can't just post a general question and expect everyone to spoon-feed you the information. Read a few threads dealing with how to do what you want to do, use the search, and you will see someone has asked the same questions you have now. Download the .CAB files you need, and happy modding!
thanks mate
all i want to know is if i am using the right software i download something name the diamondtf3d i can chage the skin but the skin comes like half way down the screen i guess that because it was design for the diamond which has a small screen so i want to know if there is a version for the blackstone
Depends on the theme. Some themes can be obtained by just replacing manilla files in your Windows folder. Search for instructions in the appropriate theme thread.
Regards,
Carty..
thanks mate
well right now i am using a program name diamond tf3d config and the themes are coming like half way in the screen can some one help me plz
can the diamond TF3D config used to edit/add themes for HTC HD / blackstone? will there be any problem?
Using a Diamond tool on your Blackstone/HD could cause trouble because the screen resolution and size are way different (Blackstone 480x800, Diamond 640x480)
oky i know that i will get lots of HATE bc i didn't search or what not.
but i did i did search but couldn't find my answer, and if i post up my question on the 6.5 thread how would people be able to read my question if like every 30 mins some one write something new in it right ?
so please just give me a answer if you guys have the time or know where i can find it.
oky 1st of all i love the 6.5 upgrade nfsfan you did a great job with this..
oky so here is my question i been looking for a program or a way to make my display words smaller. you know the home screen the tabs.
i found a theme that will do it and move every thing to the right instead of the left but i don't like that theme to much and you have to d.l. this and that and move this and move that and to much. i just want to be able to change the size of the tabs.
so thanks guys for taking the time to read this..
Hello,
just got my tp2 and had before a kaiser. I tryed a serval of rom's with and without that manila plugin and at least i stayed with the regular todayscreen cause it was easy for me to add stuff to the today scree like a messenger so i can see how many people are onine and whatever....
now i wana try to stay with that manila screen, but i'm realy pissed by the today screen, cause i don't know how to add more then just the clock, schedule and missing calls ... quite boring...
so please, can somebody tell me if its posible to add more? i was already looking around, but i coudn't find anything. maybe somebody is having a link for me?
thank you!
Please read the forum before posting. It's in the top sticky in this section. App is called Manilla Today.

Eyh m8, I did not make this thread, but I looked for manilla Today. Can't find it. There was something like manilla startmenu, to get the old menu back, but that isn't what he is asking for.
I agree with you people should search and read the stickies before posting, but can't find it myself either now.
Can you please provide a link? THanks!
Did find something with the search funtion, but don't think it does what Tabsco is asking for?
i also just found the sticky to change back to the regular screen, but i wanna try to keep on using the hole manila thing, i just want to add more things (todo-list, messanger, etc.) to the manila today screen.
Here you go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508102\
It will replace one of your TF3D tabs and use that like a normal Today screen in WM. Some people like the convenience of having SPB Mobile Shell run on that pane and others like to use it with Pocketbreeze for quick glance information. I'm hoping that we get a port of Sense UI to the TP2 soon.
ok, thanks! i'll check that link soon ... but out of ur mesaage it seems so that it not yet posible to to make manila screen more comfortable (didn't took real look to the link yet)
i'll just check ur suggestion on monday. i hopefully find something with a better look then the regular wm todayscreen.
hi all
for what i know everyone says manilla 2.5 isnt possible in landscapemode
i dont know how but ive managed to get it in landscape
it aint perfect because the big icos are misplaced and my background is to short
but i can use landscape made
because i have it possible so the files are somewhere on my phone to make it happen or is this a known thing?
gonna make some pics of how it looks and in the meantime please share youre thought
edit:screens added
Okey dokey.... Mister, this is what we all have :| So, what are you trying to say? you used a prog to landscape your screen then took pics of it to show them to everyone that happened to have the EXACT same thing? Let me tell you, whichsoever way you rotate your device, what you get is the "portrait" Manila! Its not MIS-placed, dearie, it is NOT there!
Advice: Try to change the thread title to "Rally: Let's Port Manila 2.5 to Landscape"
Cheers

man, you are a MEGA terror! I don't want to make a mistake and respond "harshly" as wez puts it...SO, help me out here:
1. Are you telling me that those extraordinary programers (who bust their brains out to port the coolest ever, state of the art, cutting-edge software and give to us for nothing other than a simple thank you) have no life?
2. Or, are you telling me that although you can port Manila 2.5 to landscape, you have a life and therefore you won't do it?
By the way, either answer implies the other... so, good Sir, really, you are an ungrateful jerk and an idiot, who deserves no attention whatsoever...
OUT>>>
One more thing, you have posted 480 times in 7 months period, and you're telling me you have a LIFE? Mate, wake up, you got no life!

Wut's the matter with you amigo!?
Take it easy man!!!
i think this thread provides a glimmer of hope for us =]...not to mention possibly the poor people over with the Rhodium who would love to use landscape
this thread would be useful if someone knew which manilla files handled the landscape mode...i'm sure miniterror would be happy to post those files if he knew which ones!

youre comments show me youre real hillbilly
maybe i have a job where i constantly need a computer arround me and therefore have the abbility to check xda a few times a day to reply to questions of other users and ask questions off things i dont get
as off the title english isnt my motherlanguage and therefore it maybe whas a little wrong and hopefull for some(my apoligies for that)
but that still doesnt have to lead to those hillbilly comments
as of the files i dont know wich files are for rotation but whas trying to get some wisdom in it and that whisdom could maybe lead to a thing that we can use mannila in landscape
it could have been usefullfor my rhodium to as i own a blackstone and a rhodium and gave my girlfriend my iolite
as for all the great developers here i dont say they dont have life thats how you interpretent it
i have respect for all these people as i know there are more of youre kind with those hillbilly comments and still they do there thing they like to do for all the others here ho can reply normally

nice one dude... am i missing sumthing here, im assuming that there is a file to install that u will put on here or there is a file that is already on my device
sorry bringing it up again
but it´s been days i´ve been look for some ROM or cab with the manila 2.5 FULLY landscaped
all i´ve found is the default music and photo tabs tilting ones
but i´d like to have all the screens rotated
seen it on older models as touch pro and even on touch hd on some videos
using gsen or gyrator on that roms only gave me a black screen on 2.5 and a useless almost half screen with a lot of glitches on 2.1
guess full landscape support it's possible since touch pro 2 is out some time now and hd2 has been announced
so, guys... is there a way to get manila 2.5 fully landscape mode?
thanks in advance
